Today is the day where we celebrate our nation's independence.

On this day in 1776, the Declaration of Independence ("When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation...") was adopted and for most intents and purposes, our nation was born.

YN is an international organization in theory, however the large majority of its members are Americans. YN fails year after year to recognize any political holidays, be it Memorial Day, Independence Day, Flag Day, etc....which leads me to my question of the day:

Question:
As a YNer, do you feel that YN should recognize American patriotic holidays?

Choices:
Yes.
No.
I don't know.
I don't care.

Every single member of YN's administrative staff should be tried for sedition and put up against the wall for their non-observance of our nation's finest day.


Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. Frederick Douglass
